About

I live in Coral Gables, Florida, a mediterranean influenced city that was founded in the 1920’s. I am passionate about travel, cooking, re fabricating antiques and found objects that please my aesthetics. I also collect friends, recipes and antiques that add to my joy and contribute to La Dolce Villa.
My life is blessed with my husband of 35 years, our two children and their spouses.
